Smart Card login not working

I have a vsphere environment running vcenter 7.0.1 and the DoD requires us to use our smart cards to log into the vsphere web client. I have gone through all the steps on the setup guide for the smart card login and am stuck at getting vsphere to read the certificates on my CAC and look at our CRLs.  I have set vsphere to look at our CRLs that are on a file share we manage but when i try to log into vsphere with my CAC i get the error "cannot validate submitted credentials" along with multiple errors in the websso.log file including "CRL validation failed. underlying reason: failed to download CRl from custom CRL URL" I have verified that the system has access to the folder in question where our CRLs are stored but it still wont connect. I have run out of ideas on what to try, any help would be appreciated.
